Chapter 4.4, Problem 11AE
To determine

To find: Analysing the Motion of a Projectile. A projectile is fired from a cliff 200 feet above the water at an inclination of 45° to the horizontal, with a muzzle velocity of 50 feet per second. The height h of the projectile above the water is modelled by,

h( x )= 32 x 2 50 2 +x+200

Where x is the horizontal distance of the projectile from the face of the cliff.

a. At what horizontal distance from the face of the cliff is the height of the projectile a maximum?
